macOS 27.2 Golden Gate beta 2 now available, here’s what to expect

Developers can now install macOS 27.2 Golden Gate beta 2, ahead of the upcoming official release in a few weeks. Here’s what’s coming.

macOS 27.2 beta 2 now available

Last week, Apple released macOS 27.2 Golden Gate beta 1 for developers, skipping the macOS 27.1 Golden Gate beta cycle. Presumably, that is because os iOS 27.1, which likely has details that the company did not want to share, even internally, ahead of time.

The biggest user-facing new feature included in macOS 27.2 Golden Gate beta 1 is Siri AI’s support for five additional languages, after its English-only initial rollout last month with macOS 27 Golden Gate.

As of macOS 27.2 Golden Gate beta 1, Siri AI also supports French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish.

The release build for macOS 27.2 Golden Gate beta 2 is 26B5091g. We are digging through the new beta and will report back if we find noteworthy tidbits.
